Abstract

A shoot of a plant is cultivated under the presence of glutathione, so that the shoot is rooted. It is possible to cultivate the shoot under the presence of glutathione by use of a rooting medium including glutathione or by contacting a solution including glutathione with the shoot. Oxidized glutathione is preferably used as glutathione. By promoting rooting of the shoot of the plant, a rooting rate of the shoot of the plant is improved. This improves productivity of a clone seedling.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a clone seedling, and specifically relates to (i) a method for producing a clone seedling by rooting a shoot of a plant and (ii) a rooting medium which can be suitably used for the method.BACKGROUND ART

[0002] A step of mass-producing plant bodies (seedlings) having a trait appropriate for a purpose and being homogeneous in quality is unavoidably required in industrially using the plant bodies for the purpose of agricultural production, afforestation, breeding, etc. A conventional cutting propagation and a tissue culture method created by recent development in biotechnology are useful as means for mass-producing plant bodies. Employing those methods makes it possible not only to merely mass-produce seedlings, but also to rapidly produce a large amount of plant bodies having the same trait, i.e., clone seedlings. In particular, in order to mass-produce an excellent line of a genetically modified tree, it is ne...
